THIS IS AN ORIGINAL CALIFORNIA CAR 1972 VOLKSWAGEN WESTFALIA CAMPMOBILE BUS WITH THE POP TOP CANVAS SLEEPER AND 1700cc ENGINE. HAS 91,XXX MILES. THIS IS THE STRAIGHTEST, MOST RUST-FREE VINTAGE VW I'VE EVER SEEN. I'M NO EXPERT, BUT I'VE LOOKED AT QUITE A FEW. IT RUNS AND DRIVES WELL. VIDEOS AND PICTURES TELL THE STORY, BUT I'LL LIST AS MUCH AS I CAN HERE:

PROS:

MINIMAL SURFACE RUST (SOME "WORSE" SPOTS, BUT THEY ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN).
SUPER STRAIGHT BODY (ONE SPOT AT ENGINE BAY DOOR BOTTOM HAS DAMAGE).
ENGINE, TRANNY AND CLUTCH ARE STRONG.
NEW TIRES.
BRAKES ARE STRONG, NO PULLING.
LIGHTS AND SIGNALS WORK.
WIPERS WORK ON BOTH SPEEDS, BUT SOMETHING DID START SQUEAKING ON AND OFF AFTER TWO HOURS OF USE.
GLASS AND SCREENS ARE ALL GOOD AND WINDOWS ALL WORK.
AFTERMARKET RADIO WITH REMOTE AND SPEAKERS.
SUPER CLEAN INTERIOR.
GREAT POP TOP CANVAS (MINIMAL SMALL HOLES) WITH OEM FOLDING SLEEPER.
SPEEDO AND ODOMETER WORK.
BONUS SOLAR PANEL SYSTEM WITH 120V AND 12V CAPABILITY.
SINK WORKS, NICE ICE BOX.
DOORS ALL WORK WELL. SOME OF THE LOCKS ARE QUITE TIGHT TO TURN, BUT THEY ALL WORK.
COMES WITH TWO KEYS.
ORIGINAL MANUALS INCLUDED.

CONS:

PAINT: MATTE BROWN ON THE BOTTOM WAS SPRAYED ON BY PREVIOUS OWNER. NOT TERRIBLE, BUT NOT GREAT. A CLEAR COAT ON IT WOULD DO WONDERS, BUT A COMPLETE RE-SPRAY WOULD TAKE THIS BUS TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
CHIP COATING APPLIED TO THE FRONT.
COUPLE SMALL CRACKS IN THE DASH.
RUBBER LATCH HANDLE ON THE GLOVE BOX IS TEARING FROM ITS BASE, BUT STILL WORKS.
INTERIOR HANDLE FOR SIDE DOOR HAS BROKEN. NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. DOOR STILL OPENS WITH ATTACHED VISE GRIP PLIERS.
SMALL HOLES IN THE TOP CANVAS.
ENGINE STALLED ON ME A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN COLD. MAY NEED ATTENTION. RUNS DOWN THE ROAD LIKE A CHAMP.
SOME FLUID LEAKS AT ENGINE. NOT SURE FROM WHERE, BUT IS PRETTY MINOR. OIL LEVEL WAS GOOD WHEN I CHECKED IT.
DENT AT REAR BOTTOM OF ENGINE BAY DOOR.

IF I MISSED ANYTHING (I'M SURE I HAVE), PLEASE ASK. WATCH BOTH VIDEOS FIRST. THANKS TO ALL FOR LOOKING!

Volkswagen Group recalls 281,505 VWs and Audis for fuel leaks

Fri, Oct 7 2016

The Basics: Volkswagen Group is recalling 281,505 total Volkswagen and Audi brand products in the United States for potential fuel leaks. Certain versions of the Audi A3, A6, A7, Q5, and Q7 are affected. In addition, some versions of the Volkswagen Golf, Golf SportWagen, and Golf GTI fall under the recall. It's unclear if vehicles outside of the United States will be recalled as well. The Problem: There are actually three separate recalls for three separate issues that all pertain to leaky fuel. All three recalls were issued simultaneously. The risk of unintended ignition is the main concern here. First off, 2012-2013 Audi A6 and Audi A7 models [28,249 cars] are being recalled because of a degrading fuel hose in the engine compartment. Secondly, 143,214 gas-powered 2009-2012 Audi Q5s and 2007-2012 Audi Q7s are being recalled. The fuel cap may crack on these vehicles, leaking fuel. Finally, 110,042 total units of the 2015-2016 Volkswagen Golf, Golf SportWagen, GTI, Audi A3 sedan, and A3 Cabriolet will be recalled because of fuel leaking from the evaporative emissions system. Injuries/Deaths: According to Reuters, Volkswagen has reported no injuries or deaths related to the fuel leaks. In addition, the company has said there have been no fires started due to the leaks. The Fix: Three separate issues means three separate fixes. Volkswagen and Audi will be reaching out to customers soon, though the parts aren't yet available. For the A6 and A7, Audi will simply replace the under hood hose. For the Q5 and Q7, dealers will clean the pump flange and install a butyl rubber band to protect the pump. Finally, the affected Golf and A3 models will have the suction cup in the emissions system replaced. If you own one: Volkswagen and Audi will begin contacting owners starting next month regarding a fix. Related Video: News Source: NHTSA, Reuters Recalls Audi Volkswagen

VW recalling 2.64M vehicles worldwide over engine, light issues

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Volkswagen is staging a massive, worldwide recall that's already grown from 1.68 million to 2.64 million vehicles and covers three different issues across a number of vehicles. We already reported on 61,000 Tiguans getting recalled over lighting issues - that was just in the US. Globally, however, VW will be recalling 800,000 Tiguans, according to Automotive News, with the focus on CUVs built between 2008 and 2011. The issue with the Tiguan relates to a simple fuse swap, so this is rather unremarkable, aside from the sheer number of vehicles being fixed. The real, troubling issues relate to gearboxes and pickups.
239,000 Amarok pickups (pictured right) are being recalled over fuel leaks, while 1.6 million vehicles are being recalled to swap the synthetic oil in dual-clutch transmissions with mineral oil. Now, the transmission issue is one for the global Volkswagen Group to address, not just the VW brand - vehicles from Audi, Škoda and Seat use the same seven-speed DSG and are covered under the recall, as well.
Why the switch from synthetic to mineral oil? Apparently, using the synthetic oil in a DSG and then subjecting it to stop-and-go conditions or heavy loads in a hot and humid climate can lead to electronic malfunctions, according to a Volkswagen press release. The switch, from the sounds of it, is largely a preventative measure.
